Heaven Knows Letra

All our architecture, all we ever could be
Has been taken by the river and carried out to the sea
And the dust that was us has settled on the street
As the tired Earth shook and cracked beneath our feet

Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
But we try

Let's start a fire and see how fast it can burn
We're standing in silence, weighed by a thousand words
And the dust that was us is somewhere in the wind
Do you ever think we'll get it back again?

Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
But we try
We try
Try
Try

Don't forget
There's more light than dark

Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
Heaven knows why we try
But we try

Start a fire and see how fast we can burn
